I love these glosses! I have so many of them now. I like the sponge applicator and they have a nice scent. Most importantly to me they are not sticky! I love the consistency of these. They have a nice array of colours and even some with glitter , which I stay away from, but I love all the others. Perfect gloss at such a great price! My experience with some other glosses at this price range were not good. You would never believe these are so low in price for the quality. -

I love this so much that I bought a backup! It is perfect for summer, and for days when I'm in a rush and I don't have time for bronzer, blush and highlight... it truly is all-in-one! It gives me a complete look with this one product! It's not matte but not glittery, it has a subtle shimmer to it. I'm in my 40's and this gives me a very youthful glow. (I have the one with the pink strip, not the coral) -

These are some of favourite blushes. I own most of the colours. Like the name says they are definitely silky blushes. They are smooth, creamy and blend like a dream. The colours are gorgeous! The pigmentation is great but not overly so. If I had to downsize my collection, these wouldn't be going anywhere!! -

This is not my favourite eye makeup remover. I just bought it as it was the cheapest one at the store and I had run out of the one that I usually purchase online so I needed something. I don't find it as effective as my usual brand at dissolving my eye makeup, and if I use too much it can irritate my eyes a little and I do not have sensitive eyes. The name of this one implied that it was gentle but I don't find it as gentle as some others. I would not purchase this one again. -

This is my favourite drugstore mascara. It is so inexpensive but gives me awesome lashes that are thick and full and long! It's a little tough to remove but other than that I have zero complaints. Although I love to try new mascaras all the time, I always come back to this one! -

I am thrilled with the quality of this product. It's a powerful makeup remover yet extremely gentle on my skin. Using a cotton pad it wipes away all traces of my makeup and is also gentle enough for use on my eyes and no rinsing required! I also find it super hydrating which is a major bonus as my skin is combo / oily but extremely dehydrated! I also have very reactive skin and I didn't have any irritation or breakouts at all.
I have found a few uses for this product: I use as a pre-cleanse to remove my makeup, I use it to cleanse my skin in the morning, I use it as an eye makeup remover, I use it as a hydrating toner, and I also use it to clean up any mistakes with my makeup using a Q-tip. What a multi-tasker this product is and at an affordable drugstore price!
This product is so convenient and easy to use plus I feel that it's doing good things for my skin, especially because it is so hydrating and gentle.
I appreciate that it contains vitamins for healthier skin. Also, that it's alcohol free as well as free from perfumes and dyes. I can see why this is an Allure Best of Beauty award winner!
I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a convenient and gentle way to cleanse their skin or remove their makeup. I don't see why men can't use it as well.
Thank you to #chickadvisor and #simpleskincare for sending me this product for trial. I am definitely sold on this Micellar water.

Simple Micellar Make-Up Remover Wipes

These are by far the most gentle, hydrating, and soothing makeup remover wipes I have ever used and I've tried many! They gently and easily removed my makeup at the end of the day. They are gentle on the skin yet strong enough that I was able to use both sides of the wipe for the most makeup removal. They also removed most of my eye makeup without any irritation to my eyes. To remove my eye makeup I held the wipe on each eye for a few seconds and then wiped, it was very gentle and there was no tugging on the delicate eye area.
I also like to use these on some mornings when my skin is feeling a little dry or if I'm just too tired or rushed for a full cleanse. The micellar water in the wipes lifts and removes the dirt from my skin, and since the wipes are hydrating I'm adding moisture instead of taking away.
I also love that these wipes contain skin loving vitamins for healthy skin and that they don't contain alcohol, perfumes or dyes which can be irritating to the skin. I did not experience any irritation, drying or breakouts from this product. I think they are the perfect wipes for even the most sensitive skin.
These wipes are so convenient! They would be great to take to the gym, work or for travel. They are perfect for freshening up anytime at home or on the go.. .
I would recommend these to anyone who wants to remove their makeup or cleanse their skin in the most gentle and convenient way. A+

I am becoming more and more impressed with drugstore skincare. I've always been a skincare junkie and I'm very particular about my skincare. As I'm aging it becomes more important than ever. I usually purchase drugstore makeup, but when it comes to skincare I usually purchase higher end products.
I wasn't expecting this moisturizer to be moisturizing enough for my aging and dehydrated skin. A bit about my skin first: My skin is oily/combo but is very dehydrated. To make matters worse my skin is reactive and acne prone, on top of that I'm dealing with the effects of aging. Not a fun combo to deal with, so I have to find products that don't cause breakouts but they also need to be very hydrating. I was so pleasantly surprised that this moisturizer IS hydrating enough for my skin! Plus, it's suitable for sensitive and reactive skin types. My skin remained hydrated throughout the day and I have not had any breakouts or irritation! My skin is soft, smooth, hydrated, and plump, and there are no more signs of dry patches! I am really impressed!
The bottle is a generous 125ml, and a little goes a long way. Because of it's lotion like consistency, I thought I needed a large amount of product, not so, I actually needed to use less, about a pea size amount is enough for my face an neck. Speaking of my neck, my neck appears smoother since I've been using this!
This moisturizer layers well with serums, so I can use anti aging actives and then use this overtop as my day cream and it's perfect. I do wish it had SPF because this is a perfect day cream for me at an affordable price. It's possible that it comes with an SPF and I am not aware of it. If not, I would love it if Simple Skincare would make this moisturizer with an SPF.
It also makes a great base for makeup application because of the fact that it's so hydrating but is not greasy.
I love that Simple Skincare leaves out perfumes and dyes. I mean no one needs those as they can be irritants, and I've read that perfumes in skincare may actually be damaging to the skin.
This moisturizer claims 12 hrs of moisture and I agree with that claim. This product definitely is kind to skin!
5 stars for this drugstore moisturizer and I would definitely recommend it!
Thank you #ChickAdvisor and #SimpleSkincare for giving me the opportunity to discover this great product!
